The shape of daily life.

Live Blogging Thursday

Hi Thursday. I’ve been off in my own world lately, doing things. One of the things I have been doing is trying to sort out some issues with my blog and the funky charset issues that occurred with an upgrade to a newer version of Wordpress. As a result I’ve been going through my archives, [...]

Inspired by:

Hi. Wednesday. There was sun today for the first time, literally, in weeks. Tell me this, Internets, is it sunny where you are? And if so, is it often? I’m starting to get itchy feet. Hankering to be somewhere else maybe. Some place with more sun, more… I don’t know. If I were foot [...]

A weekend roundup

First off, I very much loved reading about your media habits the past couple of days. I have continued keep a record of what I’ve been consuming media wise, and I think that it’s made me much more conscious and thoughtful about my choices… I’ve decided to keep the record going over at twitter. It [...]

Media Record Day 2

Started off on media bistro this morning, and found my way here. Again apropos. I like how even here, in the seeming chaos and of the Internet, like attracts like, and patterns emerge.
Later my mother sent me a link to this fascinating review of Winifred Gallagher’s Rapt; a book I now [...]

Sweet things

Things that I loved about today: figs & raw honey, a four mile run (!) and a swim in our neighbor’s pond. Oh how I love to swim…and somehow I had forgotten this. I don’t know why it’s taken me three years to go and jump in, the surface rippling green, bluebirds swooping about. How [...]

Already here

A little bit of photo booth goofiness for your Wednesday. It’s how we started our morning, at the counter and on the couch smooching and giggling, me and my two boys. (Don’t you just love Bean’s little broccoli top?)
It is already mid June. I can’t believe it really. How the time blurs once the days [...]

My Bean.

He is a delight.

He draws pictures of mice and their houses, of diggers, robots, pirate ships, tractors and us. In his pictures we have long arms and hold hands. We are bright colors, with long fingers. The grass shaggy under our feet, the sun a tangle of yellow rays at the top of the [...]

Springtime boys

Trying to get focused (and it’s not really working)

It’s been like pulling hens teeth to get words on the page here lately. Life is happening full tilt and I’m all over the map. Things are busting out everywhere: dandelions, rhubarb, fiddleheads, grass. We have allergies, Bean and I. We are a display of loud, honking nose blowing, in the morning
We eat fresh bread [...]

How to hold these moments

I know that nothing lasts. I know that spring in this place, northward where the light is lingering now and the first dandelions fleck the lawn, will become summer before I blink. I know these days will pass, and I will look back, suddenly much older than I am, with a heart full of longing [...]
